...beginning of its meeting, the HUC agreed by a 13-6 straw vote to make its suggestions only broad recommendations. Alan M. Zaslovski '68-4, one of the prime backers of Alexander's proposals, said, "We're so far from getting any of these things passed that it wouldn't be right to get bogged down in specifics...
...broad terms, the differences among the three candidates were tangible enough to judge what a majority of voters went for-and against. The trend was obviously conservative, away from the omniscient federalism of the Great Society, toward the decentralized approach espoused by the Republicans and, more vaguely, by Wallace.

But the encouraging point of the restraint at Berkeley-reinforced by rejections of confrontation politics this fall at N.Y.U. and Columbia-may be a growing student awareness that change can be more quickly achieved by cooperating with tolerant administrators than...
THESE ARE all problems of presenting news or commentary from a correct viewpoint; it also might be worth considering a possible result--loss of the broad circulation base. The newspaper thus would end up with a more select readership--namely, those who agreed with its viewpoint--and therefore by ordinary definition no longer would be a newspaper...
